The first baseball progressive I started just finished up. We started with 1987, (the so-called start of the juiced ball, juiced players era) and played all the way to 2012, a total of 26 seasons.

This time, I'm starting with the 1977 season. And a change will be made as we'll draft real life AAA players plus we'll keep those players available the whole season.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We had 7 owners compete in all 26 seasons, plus a few more played in almost every season.

Draft times will be 10AM ET to 10PM ET everyday. Only players that are WIS eligible for a certain draft are available. If you're unavailable for your draft time send proxys to other available owners, particularly owners drafting after you. If teams miss their draft times, picks can be made up anytime. If selections aren't made by the following draft day the commish has the right to make up these picks.

Drafts will be based on reverse order of standings after 120 games. 1-24, 1-24. Teams must have a minimum 30 wins at this point or will lose one draft position for every win below this plateau. A weighted random lottery for the bottom 6 teams.

Cap is $255M. No to AAA, WW and DH. Yes to trades including draft choices. Draft choices can only be traded one year ahead. After the trade deadline, draft picks can be traded in the upcoming draft and the following season draft.

If RL team changes park you must change park. Use RL team city name. Use any nickname.

Teams will post unlimited protected lists near the end of the season including IR, no limit.

Real life AAA players to be drafted.

There is an Add/Drop thread for those who need to make any changes to their rosters. This takes place after the draft is complete 10AMET on a first come first served basis. Dropped players can be picked up by other teams. Please don't use the Add/Drop thread thread until the draft is completed

Unused draft picks (slots) can be traded within reason. Example: Team One trades their unused 2nd draft pick this season to Team B for their 2nd round pick next season.

I'll post an available player list. All owners must check this list before every draft to see if any players on their keeper list are shown as available.
Another owner could take one of these players and no compensation will be given to the original owner. This is not ideal but has to be posted one way or the other.

In season trades involving only draft choices should go through the trade center as well.
